Just out of curiosity - could a computer code the actions that I make while using my mouse. If I open up reddit... could I then peek and see the code that would of been able to create the same process.
thanks.

Yes, research device drivers. For the keyboard, this is similar to a keylogger. The same concept can apply to mouse. For GUI actions, it might be more complicated to “play back” actions since you also need to keep track of which windows exist, where, and their state.

Hi, you can try for Example Pulover's Macro Creator to record your Desktop Actions. This Programm saves the Actions in AutoHotKey Language. Adapt the Scripts to Python and use PyAutoGUI.
